MICROTRAC CAMSIZER X2+ Particle Size & Shape Analyzer

Dynamic image analysis using instruments from the CAMSIZER series by Microtrac sets benchmarks in the precise analysis of particle size and shape. As a powerful measurement method in accordance with ISO 13322‑2, it enables detailed, reproducible, and application‑oriented characterization of bulk materials and powders, making it an indispensable tool for applications with the highest demands on measurement accuracy and process reliability.

Thanks to advanced camera technology and highly developed evaluation software, dynamic image analysis delivers consistent and statistically robust results within short measurement times. The detection of tens of thousands up to millions of individual particles per measurement improves quality control, increases the significance of the data, and supports targeted optimization of production and development processes.

A key advantage of the CAMSIZER series is its exceptionally wide measurement range, which—depending on the instrument configuration—extends from the micrometer to the millimeter range. This is made possible by proven dual‑camera technology: a high‑resolution camera captures fine particles, while a second camera analyzes larger particles with optimal statistical reliability. As a result, a wide variety of materials can be measured reliably without complex hardware reconfiguration.

The systems are particularly well-suited for dry, free‑flowing bulk materials and are widely used in the pharmaceutical, chemical, mineral, plastics, and food industries. In addition to particle size, numerous shape parameters such as aspect ratio, roundness, and sphericity are measured, allowing for a far more differentiated material assessment compared to purely size‑based measurement methods.

The overall concept is rounded off by an intuitive, user‑friendly software interface with automated functions. Standardized measurement procedures, flexible report generation, and reproducible conditions facilitate routine operation, reduce manual effort, and sustainably increase efficiency in laboratory and production environments.

In addition, the CAMSIZER series stands out for its robust, industrial‑grade design, which is engineered for reliable continuous operation and supports a long service life with minimal maintenance requirements.
